Abstract (en)

A network performs an input-output function. The network includes a set of cells. Each cell has an identical structure, and neighboring cells are connected to each other to form a network. Each cell further includes a set of logic units configured to perform an input-output function, and in which the logic units output factor signals, inter-cellular signals and developmental output signals, the factor signals being input signals for the set of logic units in the same cell, the inter-cellular signals being input signals for the set of logic units in the neighboring cells, and the developmental output signals initiating development events, and in which developmental input signals to the logic units are set after the development events for the set of logic units in the same cell, and in which a structure of the set of logic units in each cell is identical.
